Heh, cool.

I've intentionally stayed away from "The Lost Experience", because every time I get close to it I can feel brain cells that I need for other purposes getting sucked into the ARG. One of the things I do love about it though is that the show is still incredibly enjoyable to watch, even if you aren't following the ARG. Don't get me wrong, I'd trade new episodes of Lost for new episodes of Firefly any day of the week, but Lost is definitely one of the best shows on TV right now, IMO.

But this did get me thinking... what would a Firefly ARG be like? Would people even be interested in it?

don't know if a Firefly ARG would work considering the timeline is not set in present day...Lost works better because its somewhat believable

ilovebees.com is one of the most well known ARGs, and it was centered around Halo 2. The happenings of the ARG doesn't have to revolve around the happenings on the show. Conceivably you could have an ARG about what Joss is working on, or what hoops the Firefly crew is having to jump through to get Firefly back in some form -- where all that would be fiction created to raise hype about the show. The point is to make it realistic enough that it's believable, but fantastic enough that it makes people wonder.

I don't really have any specific ideas, I was just curious what everyone else thought.

true...I wasn't actually thinking about that and this is the first ARG I've ever particpated in...In my opinion, I just think it works better when the timeline is the present...
